"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! ”

With a shout in his ears, Jérôme. Bonaparte slowly opened his sleepy eyes, and he saw Trochu standing beside the marching bed.

So, he yawned and asked lazily, "What's going on?" ”

"Your Majesty, the time you have set for the shelling has come! Now are we going to attack Bakhchisaray or not! Brigadier General Trochu hurriedly responded.

"It's been four hours so soon??" Jérôme. Bonaparte's eyes widened slightly, and he said in disbelief.

He remembered that he had just fallen asleep for a while!

"Your Majesty, look!" Major General Trochu hurriedly asked Jérôme. Bonaparte handed over a pocket watch.

Jérôme. When Bonaparte glanced at his pocket watch, it was about 11:15 a.m., 15 minutes after the four-hour shelling he had scheduled.

And the sound of artillery outside the window still did not stop, Jérôme. Bonaparte asked again: "Are our artillery still attacking?" ”

"Yes! Your Majesty! Brigadier General Trochu nodded to Jérôme. Bonaparte replied.

"Let's go! Go to the front! "Jérôme. Bonaparte quickly got up from the camp bed, walked to the hanger, put the Naba hat hanging from the hanger on his head, and left, followed by Trochu.

After about 10 minutes or so, Jérôme. Bonaparte appeared at the headquarters of the 3rd Division on the front line in Bakhchisaray.

"Binoculars!" As soon as he entered the command, Jérôme. Before Bonaparte could salute Ra, he immediately stretched out his hand and spoke briefly to one of the staff officers beside him.

"Yes!" The staff officer quickly agreed, and then handed the telescope to Jérôme. In the hands of Bonaparte.

Jérôme through a telescope. Bonaparte observed the entire Bakhchisaray position from a bunker near the headquarters, when the small forts on the outskirts of Bakhchisaray were almost destroyed under the concentrated fire of the French Empire for nearly four hours.

Now the entire defensive position is full of stones and dust, I don't know if it's a psychological effect or what, looking through the telescope to observe the group of bastions in the distance. Bonaparte could even faintly hear the distant groans coming from beneath the shattered stones.

Looking at the scene of ruins in front of him, Jérôme. Bonaparte smiled with satisfaction, and it was clear that the shelling had met his expectations.

So, Jérôme. Bonaparte gave Trochu another order, "Let the artillery stop for a moment!" ”

Major General Trochu immediately ordered to leave, and after 10 minutes, the shelling stopped abruptly.

After a while, Trochu returned to the command and on behalf of the 2nd Division Bosquet sent a message to Jérôme. Bonaparte asked if it was necessary to send troops to launch an offensive on the defensive positions on the outskirts of Bakhchisaray!

After all, the Russian army, which was shelled, had the weakest sense of combat.

"No hurry!" Jérôme. Bonaparte shook his head, and then asked Major General Trochu: "By the way, when is the meal time in the Russian Empire?" ”

"It's about 12:30-1 o'clock!" Major General Trochu replied immediately.

"12:30...... 12:30 ...... "Jérôme. Bonaparte muttered a few words, and then paced back and forth with his head down, when suddenly he stopped and gave an order to Major General Trochu beside him: "Order all the troops to start cooking!" ”

"Yes! Your Majesty! Major General Trochu hurriedly responded, and then quickly left the headquarters.

When Major General Trochu walked out of the headquarters, he sighed cautiously.

Obviously, now is the best time to attack, but the emperor did not choose to take the opportunity to attack, and let them cook.

Isn't this simply a waste of their shells!

However, there is no way, who makes the family the emperor?

Rear Admiral Trochu, who had some regrets about the missed plane, was General Jérôme. Bonaparte's order was conveyed to the officers below, and the officers likewise conveyed the message to the soldiers at the bottom.

It wasn't long before wisps of smoke appeared in the French barracks.

After the Count of Sakhn in the city of Bakhchisaray saw the smoke rising from the French barracks, his hanging heart finally relaxed.

He originally thought that the French army would take the opportunity to attack, but he didn't expect the French army to choose to eat directly.

This is simply God bless the Russian army!

As a result, the Count of Saxon, who had the style of a later keyboard warrior, immediately put on a look of thought and said to the adjutant and staff officer beside him, "Look at me, I have already said that the French army will not dare to attack at all!" The fortresses built by our Russian Empire are simply invincible!

Now the staff and adjutant beside the Count of Saxon had no choice but to praise the Count of Saxon for his foresight!

"That's it! Since France will not attack in a short time, then the troops will still eat at the time specified before! The Earl of Saxon gave an order to the lieutenant beside him.

The adjutant who received the order hesitated for a moment, and then cautiously asked the Count of Saxon if they should be a little more cautious, in case this was a French trap!

"Traps? What traps can they have! The Earl of Saxon had a look of disdain on his face, and then insisted on ordering his troops to strictly enforce the meal time.

At about 12 o'clock, wisps of smoke also appeared in the positions of the Russian Empire.

At around 12:30 p.m., Russian soldiers on the outskirts of Bakhchisaray began to lay down their arms one after another to eat.

At 12:40, the soldiers of the two Zhuaf regiments sneaked into the trenches and bastions while the Russian soldiers on the outskirts of Bakhchisaray were eating.

The Russian soldiers, who were originally dining, were stunned when they saw the French soldiers suddenly appear in front of them.

Except for a few Russian soldiers who reacted quickly, the vast majority of the other Russian soldiers were all entangled by the Zhuaf regiment.

"Kill!" After a shout from the Zhuaf regiment, which had jumped into the trench, the fight with the Russian Imperial soldiers began.

Immediately afterwards, more and more soldiers followed Zhuaf's regiment into the trenches and bastions.

The battle was fought at its most relaxed moment, and in a few moments, the Russian Imperial soldiers in the first line of defense on the periphery began to retreat like a tide to the second line of defense.

The Russian soldiers stationed in the second line of defense had the Russian soldiers of the first line of defense as a buffer, so they put down the hard black bread in their hands at the first time, picked up the smoothbore gun at hand and tried to counterattack France.

However, before they could start pointing their guns at the French army, they saw the Russian soldiers in the first layer of defense desperately retreating in the direction where they were, and their hearts also fell into a crumble, and some of the soldiers began to wonder if they should surrender.

However, the majority of Russian soldiers still chose to resist the French attack.

At this moment, the French army in the distance immediately heard a broken Russian sentence, "Shoot or kill!" Your parents are still waiting for your safe return! ”

Although this Russian phrase is very lame, it is indeed a fatal blow to the morale of the Russian army.

The Russian soldiers, who originally wanted to resist, subconsciously thought of their parents after hearing these words, and their will to resist was instantly broken.

Subsequently, the French army occupied the second line of defense in one fell swoop.

After the two lines of defense were captured by the French army by clever means, the French army did not move forward again to attack the third line of defense (mainly because the third line of defense not only had bastions, but also earthen mounds and breastwalls, which was really difficult to attack), but stopped to sweep the Russian troops in the two lines.

After the Count of Sakh, who was standing on the high ground of the city of Bakhchisaray, saw that the two lines of defense on the periphery of Bakhchisaray were easily broken by France, his originally calm face instantly fell into confusion and fear.

He never imagined that he would lose two positions in a row in just one hour.

A day earlier, the Count of Saxon had patted his chest and assured Commander Gorchakov who had appointed him that he would be sure that the French army would be firmly fixed outside the two lines of defense to buy enough time for Simferopol to prepare.

Unexpectedly, it took him less than an hour to get France to point Bingfeng to the city.

"Fight back! Go and organize a counterattack! Count Tsarn yelled at his lieutenant and staff beside him.

Seeing this, the adjutant and staff officers hurriedly rode to convey Sachn's orders to the commander of the third and final line of defense.

The commander stationed in the third line of defense also knew the consequences of the capture of the first and second lines by Francelov, and he quickly organized a counterattack against the French troops in the first and second lines.

The platoon artillery in the third line of defense began to launch a counteroffensive against the French army, which caught the French army by surprise, which had just experienced a deportation, and a small number of soldiers began to scatter in fear.

The second line of defense is in a very dangerous situation, and if the Russian forces in the third line of defense can take advantage of the unstable French army to attack, then they will most likely expel France from the second line of defense.

As for the first line of defense...... Since the line itself was exposed to the range of French artillery, it would be equally difficult for the Russian Empire to withdraw from the first line of defense?

Fortunately, the French army had one of the best officers in the world, and under the command of the officers, the originally shaky military spirit began to gradually stabilize the state.

After firing several rounds of artillery platoons, the Russian troops on the third line of defense ordered their soldiers to start attacking the French army on the second line of defense.

Smoothbore guns and rifles fired at each other at a distance of more than 100 meters.
